Campaign officials say Republican John McCain raised more than $22 million in June for his presidential bid.
That's McCain's best month yet. He ends the month of June with nearly $27 million cash on hand, according to campaign officials.
McCain campaign manager Rick Davis said Thursday that McCain and the national Republican Party together entered the month of July with about $95 million in the bank.
The money has given McCain the ability to outspend Democratic rival Barack Obama on television advertising in key battleground states, Davis says.
Obama has not yet revealed his June fundraising.

Teachers plead for pay raise
Published: Wednesday, March 28, 2007 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, March 27, 2007 at 10:11 p.m.
A talented young teacher leaves Henderson County, bound for Forsyth County where teacher supplements are double the rate and homes are affordable.
At a glance
Another teacher digs into her own pocket so she can buy supplies for her classroom. At another school, a veteran educator works a second job in the summer so he can make ends meet.
Teachers told these stories, and more, Monday as they appealed to the Henderson County School Board for a pay raise.
"The bottom line, it's just the right thing to do," said Ginger House, a sixth-grade teacher at Rugby Middle School. "The time has come for this to happen."
Nearly 40 educators attended the School Board's public hearing on the 2007-08 budget. The crowd represented the largest showing at a School Board budget hearing in 10 years, Chairman Ervin Bazzle said.
Educators asked the School Board to increase the amount the school system supplements state salaries for its 1,700 employees. Teachers, principals and other certified employees receive 5 percent supplements, which translates into $1,500 a year for an educator who makes $30,000. Noncertified employees --janitors, clerical workers, bus drivers -- receive 2.5 percent.
"In order to obtain and retain qualified teachers in Henderson County, we need a supplement increase," said Linda Paulus, a biology teacher at West Henderson High School.
The School Board should decide today whether to pursue the employee pay raises.
Teachers said larger supplements would attract and retain bright new teachers and help teachers cover the money they spend out-of-pocket on classroom supplies. The teachers said larger supplements would also help employees offset the rising cost of housing, health insurance rates and other financial strains.
Richard Cagle, who teaches fine arts and chorus at North Henderson High School, pointed toward the effect the county's rising property values carry for teachers. Cagle wants to buy a house near the school, but property values skyrocketed around North Henderson after the recent revaluation, he said.
"Now I don't know what I'm going to do," Cagle said.
House said the increased supplements would be a show of support for both veteran educators and newcomers.
"This is the reception you want for new teachers coming into this county," she said. "Then they know their board is going to be behind them every day when they're in the classroom and that's what they need."
Several School Board members offered the teachers vocal support Monday. But the final decision comes today, when the School Board pins down the 2007-08 budgets for day-to-day operations and upkeep on 22 public schools.
The School Board already plans to seek more money from the county coffers than it received last year. The School Board plans to ask county commissioners for $19.5 million for day-to-day operations and $3.5 million for school maintenance and renovations.
The School Board has considered several routes for implementing the employee pay raise. The route that would be the least expensive off-the-bat would cost $295,531 in the coming year. That move would raise the supplement to 5.5 percent for 1,000 certified employees and 2.75 percent for 700 noncertified employees.
Buncombe County Schools and Asheville City Schools offer larger supplements. Transylvania County Schools offers larger supplements for teachers, but not noncertified employees. Polk County Schools offers smaller supplements across-the-board.

Ok so this is a basic routing question for a rails 3 application. I have a controller called contact_infos. For the edit action I want to match the route like the following /contact_infos/id/action. The reason I'm doing this is specifically for ajax functionality. Here's what I've done so far. This route worked fine.
match ':controller(/:id(/:action))(.:format)'
But this route breaks my catch-all route of.
match ':controller(/:action(/:id))(.:format)'
so it is not acceptable for my application.
I know I could target my specific route in the following way
controller :contact_infos do
But I'm unsure how to match the url as /contact_infos/id/action only for the edit action without breaking any other contact_infos actions.
Any ideas? If you give the right answer I will definitely rate you up. Thanks! Alex

by Creed
I bought Creed's Chevrefeuille for my brother as a Christmas gift and he absolutely loved it. He wears a lot of the other Creed fragrances and when he got this he was "wowed" by the scent. He said he's never smelled anything like it and it was really crisp. People were asking him what he was wearing and kept commenting on how intoxicating the scent was.

THE SOURGE OF PADDED NONFICTION....The New York Times has yet another installment today in the long running soap opera about the mental decline of our internet-addicted youth. Example: "As teenagers' scores on standardized reading tests have declined or stagnated, some argue that the hours spent prowling the Internet are the enemy of reading — diminishing literacy, wrecking attention spans and destroying a precious common culture that exists only through the reading of books." Etc.
I don't have any particular dog in this fight, but I will say this. I'm obviously part of the older demographic that loves books, especially long books, and basically believes that you can't really learn anything serious about a subject unless you're willing to read books. So my sympathies are obviously on the side of the worriers.
And yet.....having said that, spending a lot of time on the internet, as I have since 2002, has rubbed my nose in something that hadn't really bothered me before then: namely just how overwritten so many books and magazine articles are. Seymour Hersh? He's great. You could also cut every one of his pieces by at least 50% and lose exactly nothing. And I'm not picking on Hersh. At a guess, I'd say that two-thirds of the magazine pieces I read could be sliced by nearly a third or more without losing much. That's true of a lot of books too.
Obviously there are plenty of distinctions here. In many cases (profiles, for example), added length is used effectively to set a mood, even if it doesn't convey a lot of specific information. Sometimes you enjoy the writing for its own sake. And there are plenty of longish articles (and books) that depend for their power on building up a case bit by bit, example by example. Start slicing this stuff out, and you end up with mush. I'm not arguing for taking a rusty machete to everything in print.
Still, the fact remains that an awful lot of longish nonfiction writing is needlessly overwritten, and this isn't something that struck me quite so forcefully before I started blogging. But now, for better or worse, it has. I'm much more sensitive to — and much less tolerant of — padded writing.
So my point is this: if even I, hailing from an earlier generation, feel this way, I can only imagine how teenagers raised on the internet feel. Sure, part of the story may be that their attention spans have become dangerously short, but another part of the story may simply be that they aren't willing to slog through multiple pages of irrelevant muck waiting for the author to finally get to the point. It's not either/or.
So: crisper writing, please! One of the upsides of blogging (and the internet in general) is that it allows information to find its natural length: if something only needs a couple of paragraph, that's what it gets. If it needs 10,000 words, it gets that. But there's no need to pad because "we do long form journalism around here," just as there's no need to slash because you only have space for 40 column inches this week. Worriers take note.

Success Stories from ActualTests CCNP customers
Awesome feeling of the passed CCNP exam:Regarding the CCNP exam of Cisco I had to find out the link of outstanding material related to CCNP exam. I had selected many websites for this purpose but than again denied my thought for them. At last I took the look at actualtests where I did not found any reason to deny the CCNP study material. My CCNP study was complete at the test day. I felt so awesome to pass the CCNP exam.
Welt john
Actualtests guide me in super class way:For the CCNP study near the exam days I did not find the switching material in my CCNP study guide and it would be the major flaw if I did not read this portion of the exam. I decided to search on internet and when I did that I find the site of actualtests. I opened the link and purchased the product, my relevant topics were found there. I prepared from the guide of actualtests and passed the exam.
Sonata Andrew
My study guide for the CCNP exam:My tutor for the CCNP study is the actualtests for the professional certificates. It is a very sincere advice for all of you from my side that for the IT expert certification must go to the actualtests because its CCNP study material is amazing and very favorable. From that I estimated that the other certifications material will be also of excellent worth. Success will be in your corner if you will pursue my way.

I was very much astonished by the actualtests:Actualtests is the consecrated addition on the internet resources. My CCNP study became so effortless by using its products and I felt no problem at any stage while reading its CCNP study material. Actualtests worked for me like an angel that took away all the problems and during the CCNP exam the exam engine keeps me problem free. My all thanks are for actualtests.
Adolph jolt
The biggest thing for me was returning on the track:From last 4 years I had lost my standard that blames my ability because I faced loss everywhere I tried during this period. But the actualtests put me on the track again as it provided me the CCNP study material and because of doing CCNP study through it; I passed the Cisco certified networking professional document with admirable points. Actually, actualtests put me back into confidence that I can achieve anything that I want to get.

JPython: The Felicitous Union of Python and Java
Java has been misrepresented. Overoptimistically, Sun's marketing department presents Java as revolutionary, because a person can write code on one operating system and have it run on many others. Performance fanatics ridicule Java, because no Java program can match the speed of optimized C code. Both of those points of view are flawed—the marketers are wrong to claim that a revolutionary level of "write once, run anywhere" has been achieved, and the speed freaks ignore the fact that Java's performance is "good enough" for many tasks. In my view, Java is a well-designed, modern systems programming language which did not try to integrate well with others or be a performance leader. It's a fine language for writing medium to large, fairly static systems, especially if interoperability with Java libraries is desired and interoperability with non-Java "legacy" code is not needed. Under those conditions, all that's missing is a good scripting solution which allows the users to control the applications. And that's just what Jim Hugunin did when he rewrote the Python interpreter in Java and called it JPython.
That's right: JPython is a completely new implementation in Java of what Guido van Rossum did in C—7 years later and using a very different language. It's the same thing, and yet altogether different. I will describe what JPython is, how it works, and what it will let you do which "the original Python" can't. If you have any need for a scripting language which can interact with Java libraries such as the Swing GUI toolkit, you may find that JPython fills a significant gap. But first, a little history.
In 1990, Guido van Rossum chose a portable, well-established language to write his first version of Python. That language was C. Guido cares deeply about portability, and as a result, Python runs on just about anything with a C compiler. (I should know—I claim to be the first person to have run Python on both a Windows CE handheld and a Cray supercomputer.) History validated this choice; while C++ was available at the time, it was still immature. By 1997, Python had achieved all the portability Guido thought was reasonable—and then Java came along and upset everything. For a variety of reasons, the Java platform was designed to operate in a language vacuum—as a result, the interfaces between Java and other languages such as C and C++ are cumbersome. Furthermore, any Java system made to talk to "native" code using the Java Native Interface (JNI) loses several important features of a pure Java program, such as portability and security guarantees. Thus, Python couldn't, as written, run on the "Java Platform".
There were three possible ways of solving that problem. The first, to have Python talk to Java via the JNI, was attempted by a few teams, but didn't provide a complete solution and did not allow the development of a 100% Java solution. A second alternative considered was to convert Python virtual machine bytecodes to Java virtual machine bytecodes. While this sounds simple in theory, it wasn't practical. Python's bytecodes are very high level and manipulate complex objects, while Java's bytecodes are more akin to assembly language. The third approach was the "right" one, but it was also the most ambitious: to convert Python source files directly to Java bytecodes. Because of Python's dynamic nature, this meant re-implementing the Python parser and interpreter in Java. Luckily for us, Jim Hugunin, a longtime fan of Python and the main author of the Numeric Python extensions, undertook that project.
Soon, Jim Hugunin was so engrossed with JPython that he quit his Ph.D. work at MIT and went to work full-time for the Corporation for National Research Initiatives. There he joined Guido and other Python hackers to finish JPython. Jim released JPython 1.0 in July 1998 and started work on JPython 1.1, a major revision. Jim's success with JPython led to an offer he couldn't resist from Xerox PARC (the folks who invented the laser printer, the mouse, the desktop metaphor, Ethernet, etc.), and in mid-1999, Jim was off to Palo Alto to work on other Java-related projects. Luckily for the rest of us, Barry Warsaw, another of Guido's esteemed colleagues, took over the maintenance and development of JPython. As of this writing, Barry remains the current "flag-bearer" for JPython. If you're itching to install JPython at this point, see the "Installation Issues" sidebar.
JPython is a Python interpreter and compiler written in and for Java. The fact that JPython is an interpreter means you can type jpython at a command-line shell and get the familiar >>> prompt. As we will see, most Python code written for CPython (what the original Python implementation is called when contrasted with JPython) runs fine in JPython. The fact that JPython is a Python compiler for Java means you can take a Python program and compile it to Java .class files, which in turn can be used by other Java programs in myriad ways. Finally, the fact that it is written in and for Java means JPython allows the Python programmer absolutely seamless access to any and all Java libraries, and that is, as we'll see, its "killer feature".
As a teaser, consider the program calc.py, shown in Listing 1.
A few things are worth noting about this program, which I adapted from one written by Guido van Rossum. If you're a Java programmer, you may notice that calc.py is a useful program which doesn't define a single class. This is one of the ways in which Python (here JPython) provides a simple scripting solution, whereas Java requires the programmer to know about classes, inheritance, public vs. private members, etc. The second aspect of calc.py, which Java programmers might notice, is that the code is more compact than the equivalent Java code, and yet its purpose remains clear. This is one of Python's most valued strengths, and JPython builds on it in several ways. Python programmers will probably first notice they can read the code and it "feels" like good old Python; and second, the parts of the code they don't immediately understand refer to objects like JPanel, BorderLayout, JTextField, etc. These are defined in Java's Swing GUI. We won't describe Swing in detail here, but see the Swing sidebar for some discussion on what Python programmers should know about Swing.

One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Pro-life Democrats will continue their efforts to get the party to ease up on its abortion-at-any-cost plank that has been a prominent part of its platform for many years. As reported by LifeNews.com, officials with the Democratic National Committee rejected efforts by a group calling itself Democrats for Life of America (DFLA) to persuade the party to consider a less aggressive stance on the issue. "Kristen Day, executive director of Democrats For Life of America, says the platform panel refuses to acknowledge any difference of opinion on abortion within the Democratic Party" reported the pro-life news site.
An Amish-Mennonite pastor who helped a woman flee the country with her daughter in order to keep the little girl from being handed over by court order to her lesbian former partner has been convicted by a Vermont jury of "aiding and abetting a parental kidnapping." In 2009, pastor Kenneth L. Miller of Virginia helped former lesbian Lisa Miller (no relation) leave the country with her daughter Isabella, after a court granted custody of the child to Miller's lesbian former partner, Janet Jenkins. Jenkins is not biologically related to the girl, and never went through legal proceedings to adopt her.
A security guard working for the conservative Christian Family Research Council is being hailed as a hero after he stopped a gunman trying to gain access to the organization's Washington, D.C., headquarters on August 15. The guard, identified as Leo Johnson, was shot by 28-year-old Floyd Corkins after the gunman entered FRC's lobby and began making statements opposing the group's policies. Law enforcement officials said Corkins' intent apparently was to gain access to FRC's upstairs offices, where the results could well have turned deadly.
A new study out of Dartmouth College confirms what savvy parents have known for years: Hollywood movies are sexually charged, and that fact negatively impacts teenagers who watch them. The study by psychological researchers at Dartmouth and published in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science, found that youth who regularly view movies with sexual content have a greater tendency to begin engaging in sexual activity at a younger age, have more casual sexual partners, and engage in what the researchers referred to as "unsafe sexual practices."
Chicago Medical Examiner Won't Release Autopsy of Victim of Botched AbortionWritten by Michael Tennant
What is the Chicago medical examiner's office trying to hide with regard to the death of a young woman following a botched abortion? Pro-life group Operation Rescue, with the assistance of the Life Legal Defense Foundation (LLDF), is attempting to find out.
As The New American reported, on July 20 Tonya Reaves, 24, bled to death after undergoing an abortion at Planned Parenthood's Loop Health Center in Chicago. Planned Parenthood expressed its regrets over Reaves' passing but has otherwise remained mum on the incident. Pro-life groups, meanwhile, have been trying to get to the bottom of what happened.

BOSTON (AP) Ś As the East Coast shivers through an unusually cold early spring, parts of the Mid-Atlantic and New England are bracing for a norĺeaster that could bring more snow.
The National Weather Service says a powerful low-pressure system will develop off the Mid-Atlantic coast Tuesday night. Where and how much snow falls will depend on the stormĺs track, according to the weather service. But, cold temperatures and windy conditions are expected to cover the Mid-Atlantic states and New England.
Snow flurries were falling Tuesday morning in Washington, D.C. More than half a foot of snow was forecast to hit southeastern Massachusetts on Tuesday evening into Wednesday, and parts of coastal Maine could also see snow. The weather service also called for the potential of minor coastal flooding and some beach erosion along the Massachusetts coast.
Cape Cod, Marthaĺs Vineyard and Nantucket are expected to be hit the hardest, starting Tuesday evening and lasting until Wednesday morning, National Weather Service spokesman Bill Simpson said. The heaviest snowfall is expected early Wednesday, and that could make it a rough commute into work, Simpson said. Snowfall totals there could range from 8 to 10 inches.
ôIt is not unusual to have storms this late in the year,ö he said, adding that April has seen quite a few big storms in the past. The Boston area got more than 2 inches of snow in an April storm last year and was blanketed with almost 2 feet the same month in 1997.
ôThe snowfall can go early or stay late,ö said William Babcock of the weather service. ôWhen you are in New England it all depends on the year.ö
Boston and northern Massachusetts could get 2 to 4 inches of snow and coastal New Hampshire may see 1 to 2 inches. Areas west of Boston to Worcester are forecast to get about an inch and far eastern Maine could get 8 to 14 inches.
Coastal Rhode Island, Connecticut and eastern Long Island in New York are expected to get 2 to 5 inches, while New York City is expected to get less than an inch. Portions of New Jersey and Pennsylvania could get between 2 and 4 inches of snow.
Washington and northern Virginia might see 1 to 2 inches of accumulation by Tuesday afternoon, but the precipitation is expected to change over to rain by the late evening.
The Northeast has had below-normal temperatures this spring. And, with Easter less than a month away, many people are ready to say so long to snow and frigid temperatures.
ôIĺve had enough. Itĺs been a tough winter,ö said 65-year-old Robert Larkin, of Winchester, Mass., as he walked through Bostonĺs Financial District on Monday.
Businesses on Cape Cod have had it particularly rough after weathering multiple snowstorms this year.
ôBusiness has been down almost 10 percent,ö said Bill Zimmer, owner of multiple restaurants and hotels on the Cape. ôEnough is enough.ö

The Canon EOS 5D Mark III DSLR Camera Video Production Kit with 24-105mm f/4L IS USM AF Lens from B&H combines the Canon EOS 5D Mark III DSLR and the 24-105mm lens with multiple accessories specifically geared for high quality video production. Included in the Video Production Kit is a 32GB SD memory card, two additional LP-E6 lithium-ion camera batteries for prolonged shooting, and a camera backpack optimized for video with dedicated space for an iPad. Also included are a Shoulder Support Rig, a dual battery charger, and a Camera Mounted Shotgun Microphone.
The 5D Mark III is a high performance DSLR with a 22.3MP full frame sensor and the DIGIC 5+ Image processor that produces high resolution photos and Full HD 1080p video at 30 frames per second. It features a 3.2" Clear View High Resolution LCD, fast autofocus, an accurate 63-Zone Dual Layer Metering system and a durable magnesium-alloy build. The Canon 24-105mm f/4L IS USM AF lens provides zoom capability from wide-angle to short telephoto focal lengths. It offers Image Stabilizer technology to counter the effects of camera shake.

The Canon EOS 5D Mark III DSLR Camera is a full-frame 22.3MP DSLR featuring exceptional still image and movie recording capabilities. Integrating Canon's new DIGIC 5+ Image Processor and 14-bit A/D conversion, this camera is able to produce superbly detailed imagery with immense low-light sensitivity that is further aided by an extended ISO range up to 102400. Image quality is further enhanced by the new 61-point high density reticular autofocus, including up to 41 cross-type AF points and 5 dual diagonal AF points for ensured sharpness. iFCL metering works in conjunction with the AF system and uses color information from scenes to produce accurate exposure readings using a 63 zone dual-layer metering sensor. HDR and Multiple Exposure modes provide greater creative opportunities and help you to reduce the amount of post-production time needed to produce high quality imagery. The 5D Mark III is also capable of recording full HD video with manual exposure control and in multiple frame rates, including 1080/30p and 720/60p. Still images can also be recorded up to 6fps.
Image review is possible using the 1,040,000-dot 3.2" Clear View II LCD monitor, which features a high-transparency, reflection resistant multi-coating for adequate viewing under bright conditions. The Intelligent Viewfinder also integrates a superimposed LCD providing you with exposure information and features a 100% field of view.
A highly durable magnesium-alloy body surrounds the components and offers increased dust and weather resistance. An updated EOS Integrated Cleaning system also helps to reduce and remove dust within the camera body. Several of the physical controls on the camera body are fully customizable for a more efficient workflow and more convenient handling scheme. Dual CF and SD memory card support also increases the compatibility of the camera.

The VideoMic Pro Compact Directional On-Camera Microphone from Rode packs the audio quality and features of the popular VideoMic into an ultra compact and lightweight design that's ideal for use with HDSLR cameras, camcorders, and audio recorders. The microphone has a broadcast-quality condenser capsule with a supercardioid pickup pattern to capture audio from the front, while minimizing pickup from the sides and rear. An integrated shockmount and foam windscreen minimize handling and wind noise to keep your recordings crystal clear.
On the rear of the mic, you'll find a 3-way level control that offers -10 dB, 0 dB, and +20 dB modes. There is also a 2-step high pass filter with 0 and 80 Hz settings, letting you minimize the impact of low frequency hum, camera motor noise, and similar distractions.

The Revo SR-1000 Shoulder Support Rig is designed for a run-and-gun style of video shooting and enables smoother camera movements than are otherwise possible with a handheld set-up. Weighing just 2.25 lbs, the SR-1000's lightweight, ergonomic design helps to reduce fatigue for prolonged use.

The shoulder support pad is reversible for a right-handed or left-handed configuration, and the assembled rig is forward, backward and height adjustable. The foam padded handle can also be detached for use as a stand-alone support for lightweight cameras. The SR-1000 is an essential tool for adding a professional level of polish to video projects, especially when using a camera with ergonomics better suited to still photography.
This Duo LCD Charger from Watson charges 1 or 2 LP-E6 batteries via the included dedicated plates. These can be replaced by optional plates for various other batteries. The Duo can even simultaneously charge 2 different batteries with different voltages. It runs on 100-240 VAC power, allowing for use all over the world. Charging time is between 2 and 6 hours, and the charger also features a USB 2.0 port for charging another device simultaneously. The LCD screen provides a digital read-out of each battery's charge percentage--even when the charger is unplugged--via the test button. The Duo includes a power cord with a 2-prong US plug, as well as a 12 VDC car charger that plugs into a cigarette lighter.

Sylvie Hogg (chapters 1, 4, 5, 6, 12, and 13) has been dutifully traipsing the bel paese, in the name of research for American and British travel guides, for the past decade. The Eternal City and all things ancient Roman are her fi rst love, though she also confesses a serious weakness for the natural splendor of the Bay of Naples and the wine of southern Tuscany. She lives in Kansas City, Missouri, with her husband, Tim. They had their fi rst child, a bambino, in July 2009.
Stephen Brewer (chapters 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14, 15, and 16) is an editor and writer who has worked in magazines, books, radio, and corporate communications for almost three decades.

I have to say that this guide is fabulous for the right trip. If you are doing a self tour across Italy (a few cities in a few days) than pick up this guide. If you are doing one or two major cities and spending a significant time there, I would pick up one of Frommer's more regional guides or a guide that is just for Rome or Venice or ____________ specifically.
Given that you are someone who is traveling throughout Italy stopping a few days at each city, this book is a great guide to help you wade through all the touristy crazy. I am someone who likes a my trips to be half planned (of course we have to see the Basilica in Venice!) and half surprise by wandering aimlessly (because the best parts of a trip are often getting lost and discovering sites/food/beauty/etc. off the beaten path!). This guide book encourages both.
The best part is the breakdown of "What to do if you have 1/2/3 day(s) in ____(City Name Here)____." I found this helpful in prioritizing my trip. Looking at all three days I knew that there were some that were "must dos" but others, like a modern art museum, that I didn't want to do on this trip as I have seen dozens in my lifetime. Having a list of all the big attractions is very helpful in planning but you must customize to fit your tastes.
I know the internet is chock-full of information but there is something about a guidebook that enhances the pre-trip experience. Carrying it around to read on a lunch break at work, during a child's baseball game, or doctor's office while getting overdosed on pills to clear up the cold that you happened to catch days before your trip it just adds to the excitement.
In all, this guidebook really helped shape my trip by giving me the famous sites in an easy-to-read format but MUST be paired with two important companions:
1. Detailed street maps of your destination(s). The provided maps will not help you get around on foot or guide you back if you are lost.
2. Public transportation maps (trains, vaporettos, buses etc.). I am not brave enough to rent a car in most areas of Europe and public transportation is more than sufficient (Europe has the US beat in this area). Knowing what line to take, where it stops, and a timetable is essential to get where you need to when you need to.
Enjoy your trip!
As with most guide books, you get info on pricing, some cultural notes, contact info, and location info, but Frommer's does this in Great detail, even outlining bus routes and detailed info on what you'll see when biking on specific dirt roads! There is info on attractions geared toward specific interests or types of travelers (stuff for kids, foreign students, gay couples, and people-watchers; church concerts, jazz clubs, wine, wine, and more wine--there's something for everyone!)
The book also has more customizable but still pre-planned trips of different lengths, from the 2-week country-wide tour to weeklong or 3-day regional trips. There are cultural and historical notes, as well as a very concise phrase book and detachable map in the back.
Outstanding guide!
I have to say that I have found the book incredibly useful-- it is full of facts and handy information but most importantly is incredibly practical for planning a trip with all of the "best of" itineraries and the beautiful photography to illustrate it and help decide what you want to see. The sidebars and conversational tone also mean that it is entertaining to read, which is rare.
I was not previously familiar with the Day by Day format, but I will be purchasing these from now on. I hope they are all as good as the Italy version!
For decades, Frommer's meant traveling to some exotic destination on X dollars a day. Many Americans visited Europe in lock-step, not wanting to deviate from the Frommer's guide for one second. Boy, have times changed! This Frommer's encourages you to create your own adventure while making sure that you don't miss the important sights, make sure you have a warm bed to sleep in, and that you get to taste the wonderful food that is so much a part of Italy. It's so different from the other travel books I've used that it shouldn't even share the same shelves.
This book is like a combination atlas, travelogue and cool friend helping you plan your trip. All you do is pick one of the 117 different ways to see Italy and customize it to perfection. Of course, you can follow any of the 117 tours as-is, because they range from the "Best of Italy in one week," to my mother's favorite, "Florence Shopping A to Z." You can even find the best tours for a single day in a number of cities, which will make you feel a lot better about that one day layover in Italy while on a business trip. There are driving trips even though the book strongly suggests that you leave the driving to the experts. (After my last trip to Italy, I strongly agree with them!)
Then again, you could simply look at the thousands of photos in the book, pull out the enclosed map, and dream of the trip you'd take if you had unlimited time and money.
Frommer's day-by-day looks to me like a great travel book for anyone making a longer trip to Italy. The layout is excellent and the maps are very clear (though I think a hand held GPS is a must for this kind of traveling). It covers a lot of ground and the entries are short and too the point. For more info on a particular area you might want to buy a guide book that focuses on that redgion (from Frommers or others). However if you doing something like a car trip around the whole country I can't think of a better guide book to have handy for you trip. It's a great way to make impulse side trips.
My only slight negative is that I can see by the directions that they won't really get you around Italy. It you think you are going to rely on them you might be disappointed. The city road systems and the lay of the land can make finding you way around challenging. There are worst things than being lost in Italy, but again, a small GPS is a great thing to have with this book.
Overall another great guide book from Frommer's.

New FAO database - gender gap in land rights
A new database launched by FAO puts the spotlight on one of the major stumbling blocks to rural development - widespread inequalities between men and women in their access to land.
The *Gender and Land Rights Database produced in consultation with national statistics authorities, universities, civil society organizations and other sources worldwide, offers up-to-date information on how men and women in 78 countries differ in their legal rights and access to land.
In most of the world, women lag well behind men in ownership of agricultural land and access to income from land, even though women are major producers of food crops and play crucial roles in providing and caring for their households... (Source: FAO press release 17/02/2010)

Philip Grantham: One Of Many Who'll Be Affected By Further Cuts In Texas' Mental-Health Budget
For the second time in less than ten years, Texas legislators, faced with a massive budget shortage, are talking about major cuts in mental health funding. If it happens, Texas, which is 48th in the country for such funding, will slash 15 percent of the little it already spends.
"Mental Cases," this week's cover story in the Houston Press, examines what happened in Houston after the last round of cuts and looks at how The System is situated to lose even more.
Preview: It isn't good. The Harris County jail, for example, is now the largest provider of mental health services in the state and emergency rooms have been flooded with people in mental health crisis.
"Mental Cases" also tells the story of Philip Grantham, one of about 8,800 people still served by the Mental Health Mental Retardation Authority of Harris County.

The first time we met Grantham, he was sitting on the steps in front of the public library downtown, talking with a couple other people who didn't have a home. Grantham had only been homeless for a couple days this time, but when he first got to Houston in 2007, he lived on the street.
Through it all, MHMRA has provided Grantham with his psych meds, basically for free, which keep him stable enough to stay out of trouble, and more importantly, out of jail.
So check out the story and draw your own conclusions on the merits of funding mental health care, and until then, Hair Balls offers some video of Grantham talking about his illness and MHMRA.
